Some last comments I want to clarify before MOVING ON from this topic: 1) I didn't mean to say Proxy was behind it. I wanted to highlight that ecosystem leaders might not always do due diligence when promoting something. Whether that's intentional or not – don’t know. But 100% know that a lot of people without bad intentions can also do the same and post about tokens without checking them properly. So in the end, always DYOR. 2) I didn’t know this word before, but: LARP (Live Action Role Playing) – digitally “playing a role” to influence others' trading decisions or project perceptions. That’s exactly what it was. So it’s not a traditional scam/rug pull. Most of the money collected from trading fees was made "legitimately" because the audience believed the roleplay of these "devs".

3) The most famous dev (alirezakh) Turns out, but this user was still active and a community or content mod of /nativefun project, and was removed afterwards. Just a reminder of who we might be dealing with: super friendly internet users who become friends with bigger folks, gain their trust, and use it to access more people and projects. In the end, no one even thinks to check their creds. And when direct ties to shady projects are revealed, many may still not believe it. This user now claims they were a victim, and that another dev made this, controlled their project’s accounts, took most of the token fees, and vanished. If anyone believes it and is thinking of working this user, I hope they will find this thread and DM me – I’ll share all the details and txs. But I don’t think it’s worth continuing the convo – something tells me each reply will just lead to another wild story.

fwiw I don't think you were implying it was proxy or that there was any insider trading I just think it's good if ppl ask questions rather than trusting so easily there's certainly more stories that will pop up 🤣
